Siheyuan: Parade through the streets at the beginning

Director Wang raised his glass: "Xiao He, you really opened our eyes today. Come, I respect you with this glass of wine. Thank you for cooking such a big table for us today, with rich dishes!"

He Qiu didn't dare to be negligent, and did it all at once, and then said: "Director Wang, I am just an ordinary person, and it is a blessing I have cultivated in eight lifetimes to have the opportunity to cook for you."

"I should thank you, you gave me such a chance."

Director Wang laughed loudly: "You are an ordinary person, aren't we? You and I are the same, ordinary people, but the division of social functions is different!"

"Everyone, raise all the wine glasses. I propose that all of us give a toast to Comrade Xiao He and thank him for his hard work!"

As soon as the words fell, all the leaders present stood up.

He picked up the wine glass and toasted He Qiu.

He Qiu was flattered and quickly stood up to pay his respects.

At this moment, he clearly knew that he had successfully harvested higher-level network resources.

Chapter 34 Bringing Big Fish and Big Meat Home, the Beasts Are Envious

The dinner is over.

He Qiu accompanied the leaders, drinking tea and chatting in the living room.

Let's chat.

Everyone was shocked by He Qiu's vast knowledge.

In particular, his unique analysis of the situation at home and abroad is comprehensive.

It is more detailed and thorough than they report at a meeting.

Even Director Wang felt enlightened after listening to it.

"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. I really didn't expect that Xiao He, a bystander, would see more thoroughly than us leading cadres about the current situation."

"There are even some angles and directions that we have never thought of."

"He Qiu, to be honest. If you weren't sitting in front of me, I really thought you were an old scholar full of knowledge!"

Everyone laughed.

This sentence is both a joke and a compliment.

A young man with such a unique way of thinking.

Even Director Wang praised him a lot, and his future is limitless.

Director Wu couldn't help asking: "Xiao He, where did you sum up what you just talked about? You are so young, shouldn't you have such a rich social experience?"

He Qiu smiled slightly: "Aspirations do not depend on age, knowledge and age do not necessarily have to be related."

His vision of the moment.

Completely from modern history textbooks in high school.

Having experienced this period of history, it is natural to speak clearly and clearly.

Soon, the sun went down.

Director Wu has a case to go back to deal with, so he can't send He Qiu back.

Director Wang simply asked Secretary Chen to drive and take He Qiu back.

He asked He Qiu to take away even the leftover dishes from the kitchen at noon.

From whole chicken, whole duck, to beef and mutton.

Especially beef and mutton, if you put it outside, you may not be able to buy it.

But He Qiu was overjoyed.

On the way back, Secretary Chen looked into the rearview mirror and said with a smile, "Comrade He Qiu, I haven't seen the director eat so happily for a long time. It seems that your cooking skills are not ordinary!"

"But I have a little doubt, don't you work in the street, how can you still cook?"

He Qiu smiled slightly: "When I have nothing to do, I like to study the recipes. If you read more, it will come naturally."

In fact, he wanted to say, what is cooking?

I am also proficient in martial arts and medicine.

It's just that there is no opportunity to show them yet, otherwise, everyone's jaws would be shocked.

Soon, the car drove to the entrance of the alley.

He Qiu pushed the door and got out of the car, and walked back with all kinds of meat brought back from the director's house.

You know, not everyone can afford meat in the 60s.

Ordinary people can only eat some during the Chinese New Year.

Usually, don't even think about it.

He saw He Qiu walking into the compound carrying such good things in his left hand and right hand.

All the eyes of everyone in the courtyard were straightened.

"Let me go, He Qiu robbed the meat joint factory? There are all chicken, duck and fish meat, and also beef and mutton?"

"Where did he get so many meat tickets, or does it cost nothing to eat meat now?"

The third master walked up, stared at the meat in He Qiu's hand, and asked enviously: "Little He, where did you come from? How did you pick up so much meat? It looks weird, I'll help you take it to the kitchen Bar?"

He Qiu sneered: "It's only two steps, do I need your help?"

The third master was still cheeky: "Didn't I see that you are young, and I am afraid that you won't be able to lift it? Xiao He, the weather is so hot, so much meat, it would be a pity if you can't finish it?"

"Why don't the third master help you share some of the burden?"

He Qiu was about to burst out laughing.

The third master, Yan Bugui, is also a teacher at No. [-] Primary School.

I'm old, and I don't have the calmness of a teacher, let alone, but I will go to it when I see it is cheap.

It is really humiliating to be a teacher.

He Qiu said with a smile: "If you want to share it, you can buy it with meat tickets and money. They are all neighbors in the compound, so I think it will be cheaper for you."

"More money?" The third master immediately became unhappy: "They are all neighbors in the neighborhood, so it's not easy to talk about money. Besides, I'm not worried that you won't be able to eat, so I came to help you share some money?"

"Why, do you think the third master wants to come here for free?"

"I can't afford to lose that man!"

He Qiu sneered: "I don't care who you are. If you want to eat meat, you can buy it with money. If you don't have money, you can get out!"

The third master was very angry with He Qiu.

He didn't expect He Qiu to be so disrespectful to the elderly.

Isn't it just to order meat, and ask him for money, are you crazy?

The third master flicked his sleeves and left angrily.

The people around sighed and said nothing, except envy in their eyes, they were still envious.

Chicken, duck and fish are better, and you can buy them in the vegetable market if you grit your teeth and stomp your feet.

But beef and mutton are different. Even if you have money, you may not be able to sell them. This kind is reserved for leaders.

Ordinary people don't even have the chance to taste it.

……

In the evening, the smell of meat wafted from the kitchen.

The smell of meat floated into the third grandfather's house along with the wind.

The third uncle's family sat at the table, smelling the smell, and the saliva dripped down the chin onto the table.

"Dad, we haven't eaten meat for some days, why don't you buy some tomorrow?"

Yan Jiefang stretched out his head to look outside, and said enviously.

The third master threw away the chopsticks and stretched out his palm: "Sure, bring money, and if you have money, you will have meat."

Yan Jiefang had a bitter face: "Dad, it is necessary for the family to settle accounts so clearly. Your monthly salary plus my mother's pension is a little bit anyway, so you shouldn't be so picky?"

"Besides, I pay living expenses to my family every month!"

The third master snorted coldly: "New people, new things, new country, earn money and spend it yourself."

"If you want to eat meat, you have to pay for it yourself, otherwise you won't even think about it."

"Also, the living expenses you pay are only so small, what is it enough for? At most, it is the rent for your living!"

Yan Jiefang was really convinced.

Such a stingy old man at the booth is really bad luck for eight lifetimes.

Other families are deeply afraid that their children will not have enough food and clothing.

When it comes to him, he needs money for eating meat, money for lodging, and even a few extra sheets of straw paper used in the toilet have to be accounted for.

Is this the fucking life of a human being?

Yan Jiefang said angrily: "Okay, you are a great old man. In the future, if you have any illness or difficulty, I will also keep an account for you. Let's see what you will do then?"

The third master shrugged, with an indifferent expression on his face: "Don't worry, when the time comes, you won't be able to rely on you."

at the same time.

Outside the alley, Qin Huairu walked towards the gate of the courtyard with a child who was half a person tall.

The child was sallow and thin, and walked with a limp.

It was the stick who had just been released from the labor camp.

Qin Huairu walked to the door with a stick, smelling the smell of meat wafting from the courtyard.

Banggan's nose moved, and he burst into tears: "Meat, it smells like meat. Mom, I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat..."

Chapter 35 The stick was kicked away just after he was released from prison

Smelling the smell of meat, Bangjong burst into tears.

During this period of imprisonment.

Every day, he eats clear soup with little water and pickled vegetables.

Even if someone broke his leg and was sent to the ward, the food was not much better.

Not only that, after he was able to go to the field, he had to be sent to a garment factory every day to do free labor.

The euphemistic name is reform through labor.

Let him taste what is suffering in the world at a young age.

So after more than two months, when he smelled the smell of meat, he couldn't bear his emotions anymore, sat on the ground and cried loudly.

After all, he was just a half-grown kid.

Emotional breakdowns are also the norm.

Hearing the cries of the stick, Mrs. Jia Zhang rushed out of the house to greet her, and asked with concern: "Oh, my stick, you're finally back, do you miss grandma?"

"Qin Huairu, what's wrong with the stick, crying like this?"

Qin Huairu sighed and said, "Life in the labor camp is too hard. As soon as I came back, I smelled the smell of meat in the compound and cried."

"Mom, whose family is roasting meat here, let's go and order some for sticks, okay?"

"The child is indeed pitiful. I haven't seen Hun Xing for almost three months."

Mrs. Jia Zhang nodded distressedly, hugged the stick, and kept comforting: "The stick will not cry, the stick will not cry, grandma will take you to get meat to eat."

She looked up at Qin Huairu and said: "The smell of this meat came from Shazhu's kitchen. When He Qiu came back at night, he got a lot of meat from somewhere. There are all chickens, ducks, fish, cattle and sheep. There are a lot of them." .”

"They can't eat that much meat, let's order it back and make something delicious for Bang Jiao!"

Qin Huairu nodded: "Hurry up, don't starve the stick!"

After saying that, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu led the sticks and walked to Shazhu's kitchen.
